The Lubavitcher Rebbe: The Inspiration for the Friendship Circle.

The Rebbe's unconditional love of people knew no bounds. To the Rebbe they all belonged. He made them feel at home.

The Rebbe's warm smile would heal every aching heart. The Rebbe was always there, offering counsel and blessings, comfort and hope, and often - material help as well.

To the Rebbe there were no divisions among the Jewish People. He considered every Jew his own flesh and blood. For him Jewish unity was not a slogan, a wish or a promise - it was a reality.

It is his belief in Jewish unity, "the notion that no one of us is complete unless all of us are included", that goes to the very core and essence of what the Rebbe teaches.

It is this concept that motivates and is the core of the Friendship Circle.
